Mueang Buriram (Thai: เมืองบุรีรัมย์, RTGS: Mueang Buri Ram, pronounced [mɯ̄a̯ŋ bū.rīː rām]) is the capital district (amphoe mueang) of Buriram province, northeastern Thailand.

Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise): Prakhon Chai, Nang Rong, Chamni, Lam Plai Mat, Khu Mueang, Ban Dan, Huai Rat, and Krasang of Buriram Province.

The Mueang Buriram District's motto is "stone from Kradong Volcano erupted, bird filed park, Rama I's founder of the city, Suphat Thara Bophit Buddha image and excellent tradition."

The district is divided into 19 sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 320 villages (mubans). The City (thesaban nakhon) Buriram covers the whole tambon Nai Mueang, tambon Isan and parts tambon Samet. There are also 18 tambon administrative organizations (TAO).

Missing numbers are tambons which now form the districts Ban Dan and Huai Rat.
